Pastor Lucas preaches on the importance of completing the ministry (or place of service) that God has called us to. 

Description : In this world, there are questions that beget other questions. For example, what is my self-worth? Why was I born? What is the purpose of my life on this Earth? Why do I feel empty? Why do I feel hopeless? Why, why, why. We are all born into existence to complete a specific mission that like our fingerprints, is unique and can never be replicated or copied. As we are made in God’s image, we are truly one of a kind. There will NEVER be another you in existence, no one has been born before you or after you that can do what only you can do. God has poured out a measure of faith to ALL men (Romans 12:3) which represent the gold God has placed in our life. Yet, we spend our entire life replicating the gold of others and mimicking the success of those before us. Discovering our gold and mining it out, should be our highest priority in life as it demands great cost and burden (Matthew 16:24-26), but once complete we can fulfill the purpose of our birth and change this world for generations to come. Thi

Diogo Izidoro expands on a well known story in the New Testament recorded in three of the four gospels about the woman who touched Jesus’ robe and was immediately healed.
